a good crisis of tears, nights too short or a lifestyle of random ... Fine, fragile and delicate, the skin under the eyes is the first to suffer. Result? A tired mine that we would do well, thank you, and a reflection in the mirror that sticks the doldrums! To durably mitigate the bags under the eyes, Fork & Bikini takes stock of all solutions.

Understanding the bags under the eyes
Be careful, not all pockets are alike! The pockets formed by an accumulation of fat under the eyes, due to the relaxation of the skin with the age, are permanent. They can only be corrected by surgery. Punctual pockets, however, appear most of the time in the morning when waking up, are due to lazy traffic or bad habits. Good news, this time it is possible to mitigate them or to make them disappear, by simply changing its routine.

An anti-pocket diet
Yes, the contents of the plate can play on the appearance of bags under the eyes, by stimulating or on the contrary, by slowing the drainage.

Preserve skin to fight against bags under the eyes
Accented by skin aging, the pockets take advantage of the fragility of the skin around the eyes. In other words ? The more it is maintained and preserved, the more pockets are difficult to embed! So we adopt an impeccable routine by moisturizing the skin morning and evening, with a classic cream or better, special eye contour. We protect ourselves from the sun, we pleat as little as possible and we avoid rubbing our eyes bluntly. We also think, in passing, to eject all chemical cosmetics from our beauty kit: the bags can be aggravated or even caused by an allergic reaction to a chemical component.

As for the more motivated, they will test the self-massage to restart the lymphatic drainage, tapping the skin of the face and the eye contour with the fingertips, about 2 minutes every day. A post-crisis emergency of tears or pre-romantic evening? To deflate illico bags, apply a washcloth filled with ice cubes, cooled green tea bags or the inevitable slices of cucumber!
